Chapter 138 Wife Spirit Card

"Mr. Murong is going to move out of Yuefu?" Gu Mang was taken aback, "Then he is all alone, where is he going?"

"I don't know." Yue Chenqing lowered her head, caressing her exorcism sachet absently, her expression looked very sad, but also somewhat disheartened.

This kind of situation has never happened to Yue Chenqing. Yue Chenqing has been chasing Murong Chuyi for so many years, she has been disappointed, sad, and unwilling, but she has never been as tired as she is now.

Probably a person's heart is fleshy after all, and the long-term enthusiasm has not been rewarded, and there will be a day when the cooling is exhausted.What's more, Jiang Yexue treated him with a completely different attitude of tolerance from Murong Chuyi as his elder and also a great master of crafting. Compared with this, it was hard not to be shaken.

"The fourth uncle said before that he has different blood from ours, and he has never seen us as relatives. The reason why he has stayed in Chonghua is to repay my mother's kindness in adopting him. Now He probably thinks that I'm too weak, and the kindness has been repaid, so...so he wants to leave."

Yue Chenqing's fingers wound around the knot again and again.

"...I don't know where he is going. He may want to travel around the world to find his real relatives, or he may just think we are annoying and want to move away from us. I don't know how to persuade him, anyway. My words, he... he will never listen to me..."

Mo Xi and Gu Mang glanced at each other, but didn't speak to each other.There is really nothing to say, what should I say?

Yue Chenqing is not their relative, and Murong Chuyi is not. It is always inconvenient for outsiders to talk about other people's affairs.

Just when I was embarrassed, I suddenly heard the beaded curtain behind me.

The first to react was Xiao Lan'er, the little girl greeted him happily and obediently, and called out repeatedly: "Mr. Mr.!"

Several people in the courtyard turned their heads together and saw Jiang Yexue coming out of the inner hall in a wooden wheelchair. He was wearing a blue dress today, and his black hair was tied by a sapphire button and hung down on his shoulders.He smiled and stroked Xiao Lan'er's hair, and Xiao Lan'er happily said, "I'll push the wheelchair for Mr.

"Okay."

The little girl carried the centipede kite on her back, walked around behind Jiang Yexue and pushed him into the yard.

Jiang Yexue raised her head, with soft eyebrows and eyes, and said with a smile, "I was mixing the anti-evil sachet inside, and I didn't listen to the movement for a while, so I was negligent. Brother Mo, Brother Gu, Duanyang Ankang."

When all the people are here, the small courtyard paved with bluestone becomes lively.

Jiang Yexue's family didn't have servants, they had to wash the reeds and mix the glutinous rice by themselves.But it is precisely in this way that I feel that the world is just right and the years are peaceful.

Yue Chenqing and Xiao Lan'er were young and active, one big and one small two young people ran around in the yard, adding fire to the open-air altar, and bringing in large buckets of well water to soak the zong leaves.

Gu Mang sat on the small bench, rolled up his sleeves and stirred the glutinous rice. Seeing the two people in full swing, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid they will be able to use up all the water stored in the water tank before noon."

"Just use it up." Jiang Yexue said with a smile, "Duanyang needs to get water at noon, when the yang energy is at its peak. It is rumored that the water stored at this time can ward off evil spirits. Didn't you believe in this before?"

Gu Mang thought to himself, oops, I forgot.

However, he glanced at Mo Xi who was cleaning the rice dumpling leaves by the stone platform in the distance, and secretly rejoiced that Jiang Yexue reminded him of this matter, and he could tell Mo Xi about it later, so that Mo Xi felt that he didn't even care about these little things. I still remember the details, widening Mo Xi's heart.

Thinking this way, Gu Mang turned his head and changed the topic with Jiang Yexue: "You told Yue Chenqing and the others about everything about me?"

"Not really." Jiang Yexue said, "I just told him that Brother Gu has some secrets about you, and it's not convenient to reveal them to the outside world. But I know you are not a heinous person. If he can trust me, then I hope he I can trust you too——Chen Qing is still very smart, there are many things that we don’t need to point out.”

Gu Mang didn't know what to say, and finally lowered his eyes and said, "...Thank you."

"What else do you have to say thank you to me?" Jiang Yexue sighed, "Actually, I'm sorry for you too, and I didn't insist on believing in you before. If you don't blame me, I'm already very grateful." He His eyes turned to the yard, as if he had passed through many years, and saw a very simple wedding held in this yard many years ago.

A couple of newlyweds, few guests, others avoid him, but Gu Mang feared that the whole world would not know his attitude, playing a suona, playing Fengqiuhuang, winking and smiling at Jiang Yexue amidst the colorful papers flying around the courtyard .

"When I was squeezed out, you didn't betray me, but I never trusted you all the time. I owe you."

Gu Mang felt a little embarrassed when he said that, he scratched the back of his head: "Oh, there is nothing owed between buddies." Once again in a hurry to cut things off, his blue eyes rolled around the courtyard and landed on the ground. On Xiao Lan'er, he hurriedly said, "That's right, what's going on with Lan'er? Why does she live in your house?"

Jiang Yexue sighed: "You also know her situation, Lan'er's spiritual core is one in a million strong, almost comparable to Xi Hejun, but her physique is too weak to bear such a natural fate, so Instead, she became a madman. Although she is obedient and gentle on weekdays, once the symptoms flare up, she is very disrespectful and cruel..."

"She broke out again?"

"Well, it happened again not long ago in the school." Jiang Yexue looked at the busy little girl in the distance, and said, "Although the elders of the school stopped it in time, she still injured several children. One is the king's cousin."

"..."

"They were going to expel her from the academy and destroy her spiritual core. I couldn't bear it, so I took her as a guarantor and took her with me as my disciple. Although I am not a medicine cultivator, I am more or less Some dabbled, I know that her crazy heart disease can't stand stimulation the most, and she is most afraid of others' words to provoke her." Jiang Yexue sighed, "The school is mostly children who have not experienced the world, influenced by some elders, they always call her a monster , she won't get any better if she stays there."

Gu Mang nodded and said, "That's right. Children are the easiest to follow others."

"So I persuaded Mr. Changfeng to let him keep his daughter in my house. Firstly, he can preach and receive karma. Secondly, I can slowly relieve her from her overbearing spiritual core. Thirdly..." Jiang Yexue paused, "There are few people here, so it's finally a clean place, no one will bully her. It's also good for her illness."

Gu Mang smiled and said, "You're right, you said one, two, three, do you still have four?"

Jiang Yexue's fingers curled slightly, she lightly tapped her forehead and thought about it, she smiled for a while and said, "Four years, she is very obedient, and always pushes me out on her own initiative, which means I picked up half a small wheelchair."

Looking at each other with a smile, Mo Xi suddenly turned his head by the pool: "The reed leaves are all washed, should I bring them here?"

"Then I will trouble Brother Mo."

Making zongzi is a complicated job. The most popular thing here in Chonghua Wangdu is pillow zongzi. The leaves of the zongzi are made of reed leaves, wild rice leaves, or reed leaves.Jiang Yexue is careful and remembers the tastes of everyone present. He went to the market early this morning and bought the freshest ingredients home. In the small earthen jar, the glutinous rice has also been adjusted.Yue Chenqing was gearing up and said excitedly: "It's starting! I want to make rice dumplings!"

Xiao Lan'er spoke softly, but came over with a small stool in her arms: "Then, then I'll make sweet rice dumplings."

Yue Chenqing teased her: "Aren't you going to light the fire by the stove?"

Lan'er whispered but firmly: "No, lighting a fire is not fun, but making zongzi is fun..."

Jiang Yexue looked at them and sat on the wheelchair with her face tilted and smiled. After a while, she suddenly realized something: "Huh?"

Gu Mang turned around: "What's wrong?"

"I forgot to take the nine-color thread. I will use it to bind the rice dumplings later."

"Your legs and feet are inconvenient, where do you put it? I'll take it for you."

Jiang Yexue smiled embarrassingly: "Brother Gu, the thread is in the cupboard in the small hall, the second one from the left."

Gu Mang got up and went inside the house.

Jiang Yexue's room was very simple, without any other decorations. Gu Mang quickly found the bundle of nine-color silk threads he mentioned in the cabinet.Just as he was about to go out, he glanced out of the corner of his eye at a memorial tablet in front of the alcove.The sacrificial plaque was black and white, carved from cypress wood, with a few simple words written on it:

The late wife Jiang Qin's hibiscus position

"..." Gu Mang couldn't help but stop, looking at the spiritual tablet.

Qin Mujin was Jiang Yexue's first wife. Back then, her family suffered and others could not avoid it, but Jiang Yexue still fulfilled the marriage contract with her.After the two got married, they raised their eyebrows together, and played harmoniously. They were originally a loving couple, but who knew that Qin Mujin would unfortunately die in a battle not long after, and at that time they were just newlyweds, and they were the most affectionate hour.

Because the time we spent together was very short, Gu Mang didn't have a deep impression of Mrs. Qin. What he remembered most clearly was her bride's attire when she got married. See her face.

In addition, remember that the bride can drink very well.She seemed delicate and weak, but she drank all the guests who were drinking with her, and Gu Mang was no exception.After the wedding banquet that day, he faltered a little, and it was Mo Xi who sent him back that night.But Mo Xi didn't let him go back to his residence, but dragged him home directly.

At that time, Mo Xi was still living in the old house of the Mo Mansion, and his uncle who exercised power had not yet passed away, and there were many eyeliners in the mansion following Mo Xi.But Mo Xi didn't know what was wrong, he was so impulsive that day - he insisted on pinning Gu Mang on the couch to entangle him.Gu Mang really drank too much, and kept covering his eyes with his arms. His whole body seemed to be soaked in wine, and his whole body was so hot that Mo Xi lost control. A servant knocked on the door and asked the young master Whether it is necessary to change the candles for reading at night, Mo Xi responded by extinguishing the candles in the house, and then bullying the senior brother who dared not speak out even more in the dark.

Later, Gu Mang asked Mo Xi what was going on crazy, and after a long silence, Mo Xi told him that he was just envious of Jiang Yexue being able to marry the person he loved.

Gu Mang didn't have any strength at the time, he couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry, there are so many brides in the world, don't tell me you have to feel emotional every time you see one of them.

Mo Xi remained silent, and after a while, he said that actually he still felt that the bride looked a little like Gu Mang through the red veil.

Gu Mang was about to laugh angrily at the excuse he made for his beastly behavior, he said, eyes like mine?Why do I think her nose still looks like yours?

Nothing like it.

You say it doesn't look like it?I think it looks quite similar, the lips also look like Murong Lian's.

Not at all.

The face shape is still like Murong Chuyi.

……

Mo Xi didn't refute any more, and seemed to feel that he shouldn't continue to argue with his brother who was bullied so badly by him.However, it may also be due to Gu Mang's memory loss, and he can't remember more conversations clearly.

I don't know how Mo Xi would feel if he saw this spirit card at this moment.They were still young at that time, thinking that as long as they could marry the one they loved, it would be an enviable thing.But who knew there was such sadness in the world as newlyweds and divorced.

Maybe people will never die.

Gu Mang sighed, and bowed his hands together in front of Jiang Qin's spiritual tablet. At least he had a fight with Jiang Yexue. If Qin Mujin was still alive, he should call her sister-in-law.After worshiping, he looked at the spirit tablet again, hesitating whether to say hello to Jiang Yexue, offer a stick of incense or something, but suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He couldn't tell, he didn't feel anything when he saw the spirit card for the first time, but after seeing it a lot, he felt vaguely uncomfortable - he always felt that there was something more about this tablet.
